    I'm definitely interested in that. I'm 44 and just started exercising and eating right last week-AGAIN!! Working out 6 days a week, it's a cross between kick boxing and fitness bands. 45 minutes every day. Goal is to give it your all. First week was really tough. Survival mode mostly. I have always been a horrible eater. Skip one or 2 meals a day only eating once, sometimes twice. Since 2004 have gained an avg. of 6.5pds a year. My body is a mess. I really don't want to fail this time.

    Hi everyone out there who is 40 + something! Don't give up. The body that you have now is what gets you where you need to go. If you're not happy with the way you've been treating it, or it's been treating you, the good news is.... What your situation is today will not be what it is in 5 weeks. In the words of Ghandi, "be the change you want to see in the world."

    Hey folks,

    43, male, a bit too big around the middle, need the motivation of friends who might look at my diary and see how crappy I eat sometimes. Been around the fitness/diet block a few times. I have screwed up and succeeded enough that I can probably share some insight and motivation.

    I tend to think I can do everything all by myself, which is why I have been on MFP for years but only have one friend. That hasn't been working so well for me lately. Would like to connect with some like-minded folks like yourselves.

    --Andy.
